"This is a traditional backward idea in the countryside before, and it is always believed that peasants have a lower status than those who have jobs and people in the city, so since the child is born, if the parents are farmers in the countryside, they will call the father father to distinguish the difference between the people in the city."

According to this family, this situation is due to the fact that after he was born, the second father's family regarded it as very strange, the second father had no children, he seemed to have passed on to the second father, so he called the second father father, the second mother called the mother, and his own biological parents changed their names to uncle and aunt.

The netizen also said that Yun Xi is closer to Shaanxi regardless of living habits and geographical environment, and he has not known how to write the two words weiye, thinking that it is the grandfather two words and then the dialect is pronounced weiye.

During the investigation, the reporter found that according to the different customs and habits of various places, there are various different titles, but they are all similar.

The origin of "Wei Ye" and "Wei Po"

The reporter searched for the origin of "Wei Ye" and "Wei Po" on the Internet and found that some folklore experts introduced some stories behind several common names. The folklore expert said that people in the Weihe River Basin call the uncle's family "Wei family" and their grandmother "Wei Po", which is actually an allusion to follow.

Legend has it that during the Spring and Autumn Period, Prince Zhong'er of the State of Jin was ostracized and persecuted at home and exiled to the State of Qin, and his brother-in-law, Duke Mu of Qin, took him in with courtesy. Later, the Jin dynasty was politically stable, and Zhong'er wanted to return to the throne. His nephew, the later Duke Kang of Qin, sent his uncle to Weiyang very solemnly. Later generations used "Weiyang love" to express the deep affection between nephews and uncles, and used "Weiyang" to refer to uncles, and the uncle's family was "Wei (Yang) family". Therefore, grandma is naturally called "Wei Po", and Grandpa is also called "Wei Ye".

The folklore expert said, "In fact, the words 'grandmother' and 'grandmother' have appeared as early as ancient times. To speak of dialects, in fact, at first it can be called a dialect, but in the end it becomes a conventional thing, it is not a dialect. For example, the folklore expert said that like people often called "parents", in ancient times, parents were called parents, and parents were formal names, but later after parents were widely recognized, they reasonably became "regular" names like the two words "parents".
